Our personal Chris Bumbray just lately spoke with Nobody 2 director Timo Tjahjanto, who mentioned that Odenkirk and Lloyd are forces to be reckoned with. “I underestimated just how crazy Bob Odenkirk is!

We get that he loves them and doesn’t want to disappoint them, but once the killing starts it ain’t gonna stop.” You can take a look at the remainder of his evaluation proper right here.
